Last fall I pooh, poohed the reports from the very same sources that the Russians had turned FAB 1500s into precision cruise missiles at $3000 a pop. Well, I’m sure you’ll agree, seeing is believing. Turning the entire inventory of FABs into cruise missiles has been the biggest game changer of the war after drones.
But you’re right, just because the Russians already have 300mm rockets designed for these systems, why on earth would they want increase their stores of projectiles by millions and millions of rounds? Forget that! Let’s hope the Russians are as stone stupid as the MIC and they’ll destroy the FAB 250s and will waste hundreds of millions replacing them with new 300mm rockets. You need to get a job in DC, working for the MIC. You’re a natural for their money wasting department. Geesh!
Now please explain how Russia is going to fit an FAB-250 version of the GLSBD into the Tornado launcher, when it is too heavy to fit in the launch tubes. Look up the weights of the bombs and rockets, I did.
If the Russian MOD made this claim, actually showed a mockup, that would have credibility. A telegram channel making claims is not a production run of working weapons.
